One of the pins that locks the Bimini bar in place has been lost. Yamaha wants to order a whole new assembly which will take forever and we are looking to sell it so any suggestions on how to replace just that pin?
 
Bottom of the lake right by the left hand courtesy dock at Abiquiu Lake in New Mexico. Just put it there myself this afternoon.

I just ordered 4 on Amazon for about $12. Fit great and have the teathers attached with a split ring included.

Got a link to what you bought? Photo of it in place once it arrived?

Are you talking about this type of spring pin? I had one of these on my bimini pole break and replaced it with this.

The pictures they put on Amazon are kinda weird. I don't know why they show the one with the cleat. Here is one with a quarter shown. I can measure it if you need.16921426709488038044654187250373.jpg

I have to measure the diameter of the posts themselves to see but it looks like they'd work
